I wanted to check prices on gunbroker so I signed up now I have gotten a bill for a $2 id verification fee that is billed by some third party, does anyoneknow anything about this? I am not about to give my credit card number out for something i know nothing about.

"Members that use an email address from a company that offers free email addresses like Hotmail or Yahoo will be charged an activation fee of $1.00. Persons whose registration information is flagged as suspicious by our fraud prevention systems may be charged a $2.00 fee to go through a detailed security check."

When I joined, they required a $1 fee if you registered with a "free" email address such as Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo, etc. Since I did not want to put my CC on file, I sent cash. However, they do not let you bid unless you have a CC # on file.

I buy on GB frequently and have not nor will I ever place my CC on my account. My CC has nothing to do with the transaction with the seller or Gunbroker as...my cash payment and signed copy from my FFL are all that is relevant. If i do not pay, they have recourse...they can lock my account.
